Dog Appreciation Day

I think dogs like Chad help autistic kids like Milo begin to relate
because,

like all of us, they want everyone to know what a great dog
they have

and how much they love them.

Let’s all do something with our dogs this week-today-heck,
right now!

Take them for a walk, give them some play time one-on-one
with you,

teach them a trick, take them to an obedience class. It will
remind us how

much we love our dogs and appreciate them and the
interaction will be a benefit to both of us.

What is your relationship to your pets? Our dogs affect our
emotions; make us

laugh or cry, they help us live longer, they can affect our
relationships with other

humans. Pretty amazing.
